We agreed to meet at seven o’clock to drive to the Playa Principal where I stopped, but somehow the friends with their truck which Patty […]

Pos: Pos: 15.8592,-97.0644 Loc: Puerto Escondido/ Zicatela Acc: Hotel Ines Dist: 0,00 km rest day I went to bed way after midnight yesterday, but going out with Patty was it worth for the change and a very nice cultural experience. Patty is so lovely looking after me! But it is nice to see what kind […]

Pos: Pos: 15.8592,-97.0644 Loc: Puerto Escondido/ Zicatela Acc: Hotel Ines Dist: 0,00 km rest day As always, I do office work in the morning on a rest day, calling home to my man and my employees, answering emails, updating my tables and maps, editing my pictures, and organizing the next section. Patricia stops by, and […]

Pos: Pos: 15.8592,-97.0644 Loc: Puerto Escondido/ Zicatela Acc: Hotel Ines Dist: 36,7 km Start: 07:15 End: 14:40 A quiet night and a launch with no problem – what do I need more? The scenery is still the same – endless long beaches with not much to see, and unfriendly landings on calm water with low […]

Pos: Pos: 15.9652,-97.6762 Loc: Laguna de Chacahua Acc: Hilleberg Allak 2 tent Dist: 64,5 km Start: 06:15 End: 18:15 I am seriously contemplating to have a rest day before this long paddle, but no, what is done is done. I can rest in Puerto Escondido with hopefully some ‘civilisation’ of a shower, laundry, wifi and […]

Pos: Pos: 15.9443,-97.3530 Loc: Laguna Manialtepec Acc: Hilleberg Allak 2 tent Dist: 36,9 km Start: 07:55 End: 16:05 I take my time this morning, but am pleased my body feels not bad at all after a longer paddle. Well, it were no 164 km like the leg to Acapulco, just hundred less… Not much to […]

Pos: Pos: 16.2134,-98.1849 Loc: Laguna de Alotengo Acc: Hilleberg Allak 2 tent Dist: 46,5 km Start: 07:20 End: 16:50 My neigboring beach restaurant people were so ‘friendly’ to leave on a bright light bulb over night…hmmm, just for me or do they do that every night? I have an en-suite-bathroom, no need to oriente myself […]

Pos: Pos: 16.3294,-98.5655 Loc: Punta Maldonado Acc: Hilleberg Allak 2 tent Dist: 35,8 km Start: 07:40 End: 17:40 A calm night, a smooth paddle along another day of non-exciting coastline on calm water with low winds. Just a landing would have been not very pleasant anymore in between, but who needs to land during the […]

Pos: 16.5556,-98.7769 Loc: Playa Hermosa Acc: Hilleberg Allak 2 tent Dist: 53,5 km Start: 07:40 End: 17:40 How nice it feels to sleep with a safe feeling about being in a small village where there is likely nobody bothering me, no voodoo-dancer is appearing close to my tent, and I even dare to stuff ear […]

So far, I have only encountered friendly people along the Mexican coast who admire what I am doing! […]
